Ace reporter Acadia on the job again. Lucky Sherman has more famousness to report on so after the jump check out the new interview. And yeah, it was before the Super Bowl – so I’m sad 
See those people in that pic? They ring a bell? I bet they do, but I am also going to bet that a lot of you can’t name them. But you might remember the story of the plucky girl with the hurt foot who did a vault for the USA in the Olympics. Or you might think that it is the story of an old guy who hobbled and then kidnapped a young girl. Regardless, “Your Woman” by White Town is a song that is sort of like that.
I have no idea what it is about, and I could not tell you any of the words. But I know the song. It’s like someone played it to me when I was sleeping. Every night. For a year. Even after I read some of the lyrics I didn’t understand it. The guy is saying: “I could never be your woman.” No kidding, dude. You are a dude! Why don’t you just write a song about “there is something that you can cut in half and its cross-section would be a cube“. Makes just as much sense.
If you people tell me you don’t remember it I will call you a no good liar. And we will fight. Video and lyrics after the jump.
It’s Tuesday again already? Ugh….ok, ok. *Grabbing first thing I come across*
Here is a video featuring a bunch of movie clips where people are flipping somebody off, set lovingly to that one song. You know the one. That one dude sings it. Yeah, see? I knew you knew what I was talking about.
So my pal Jessica is going to be a HOST at this fancy awards show. It is called the Artists In Music Awards and despite the fact that I didn’t really read their site, I can tell you with 0% conviction that it is an awards show for people who paint guitars. Or they paint guitars on things. Or maybe they paint guitars on other guitars. That’s what I would vote for if I were a judge. Here is the official description:
The Artists In Music Awards was created to honor and recognize the best independent music artists from around the world. Many artists produce music deserving of radio play, but few get to shine in the world of mainstream. We def believe in supporting indie acts.
It’s in Los Angeles on Feb 10th and you can get tickets here. I would go if I didn’t already have important international plans that night. I need to go to the store and live in North Carolina help Milla Jovovich pick out sexy underwear in Switzerland so I can’t go. I know that sucks and you might think to yourself: “why bother if Acadia isn’t there”? Well like I told you, my friend is one of the hosts and if you go you can see her. And she can just email me whenever she wants and if I go to Los Angeles she will let me stay at her house. CAN YOU IMAGINE?
Anyway – she’s my friend, she is famous and fancy and you people should go to the thing. What if she becomes the next Billy Crystal? You don’t wanna miss that!
“Party Up” by DMX is a good example of a video that could have pretty much gone with any song, and it sort of wrecks the song that they decided to use it for. In my opinion, “Party Up” is completely about a guy cookin’ up a big pot of revenge and getting ready to go out and do damage. Like you know in the Rambo movies when they get dressed for an hour because they have so many knives and guns and holsters and stuff. They tie on headbands and clip hand grenades and sandwiches to their shirts and get all greasy and ready to fight.
That’s what DMX should have been doing instead of running in and out of a fool bank with a silly hat on. Had zero to do with the song. Might as well have shown him getting into a mix up at the Jiffy Lube because he had a coupon but the dude said it was only good on Tuesday and DMX was all: “I’m DMX and it is Tuesday if I say it is, oil boy!” And then oil boy said fine and said he would do the oil change at the discounted rate but when DMX went into the little waiting room he went to get some coffee and it was all burnt and he went nuts and yelled at everyone. That would be better than the bank robbery one.
Please note I have added a tag called: “Acadia’s Genius Ideas” and slapped that bad boy right on this. I better not see a Jiffy Lube video any time soon… Video and lyrics after the jump.
If having two hip-hop icons for parents didn’t already set Jay-Z and Beyonce’s daughter apart from every other child in the world, the child’s name has certainly made sure of it. Blue Ivy Carter, the new addition to the Carter family, has created some serious controversy over the significance of her name. While some are more optimistic and believe to be just another crazy Hollywood name, others don’t believe it is as innocent as that.
Some claim that Ivy is for IV, the Roman numeral for the number four, which is extremely important to the couple. The couple was married on April 4th and four is also Beyonce’s lucky number. But others believe that there is a more sinister meaning of Blue Ivy. This fire has been fueled by beliefs that Jay-Z is part of the Illuminati. While the Illuminati became more well known after the book and movie The Da Vinci Code, the modern day Illuminati group is a worldwide organization that plots to control world affairs through government and other entities in order to establish a New World Order. According to reports, Ivy refers to ‘Illuminati’s Very Youngest’, while Blue refers to ‘Born Living Under Evil’, which people believe actually makes Blue Ivy Lucifer’s daughter. However, just as everyone has their own opinion on LED TV reviews and politics, everyone has their own take on the meaning behind Blue Ivy.
